The transport sector has a significant impact on climate change. Not only is it responsible for a quarter of emissions, but it is also a sector that, due to its strong growth, is not managing to lower its emissions.
In this book, Cathy Macharis demonstrates that emissions need to be reduced by a factor of 8. She presents a scheme of four actions and four conditions that we can use to facilitate a sustainable transition. A story of 8As that can lead to a transformation of our mobility: Awareness,Avoidance

Paperback. Condición: New. Climate change is here. We are in the middle of it and cannot turn a deaf ear to the alarm bells that are sounding ever more compellingly. The impact of unbridled greenhouse gas emissions is incontrovertibly proven and clearly measurable: the warming of the atmosphere and oceans, a change in the frequency and intensity of precipitation, a change in storm activity, a faster acidification of the oceans. There is no more time to close our eyes and think the problem away. No, if we don't want to burden future generations with insurmountable problems, we need to take action. and right away.Cathy Macharis, professor of Sustainable Mobility and Logistics at the VUB, puts her finger on the problem and translates meeting the climate goals - which for greenhouse gas emissions implies a reduction by a factor of 8 - into a concrete and sustainable mobility plan to which everyone can and will have to do their bit. The challenge is huge, and despite the fact that technology can help us do this, technology alone cannot solve the problem. In 8 A's a (Awareness, Avoidance, Act and Shift, Anticipation, Acceleration, Actor involvement, Alteration and All in love!), a plan of action is comprehensively proposed, starting with a change in mentality. This discourse advocates urgent but achievable change, without finger-pointing, hysteria or the pessimism so often inherent in the climate debate. Nº de ref. del artículo: LU-9789058567017
